gray dark gray whatever yeah the color's not great and it's got lines on the back for no reason I think the Beats case I think the shape is nice I think it does feel more expensive than your average plastic case simply because the shape is very like precise and consistent like the buttons which are just plastic or whatever the buttons are precise the edges of the case are precise it is rounded over in all the right places it feels kind of like a giant iPhone 5c which I liked

Um, it is shiny plastic. Uh, it is not as grippy as a leather case, not by far, although it is grippier than I thought it would be. It is probably about as grippy as Apple's clear cases are, which is again, it's not as grippy as rubber, definitely not as grippy as silicone, but it's grippier than I thought it would be just because of the tackiness. It shows fingerprints disgustingly.

Yeah, like, leather, one of the great things about leather is it will absorb all the oils from my fingers. This plastic will not. It is covered with oils. But I do have to say, for this case, and by the way, the reason I got it, of course, is because it has a bare bottom, and it does. Even the edges of the bare bottom, I think this case is beautifully, precisely shaped and formed.

I like everything about it except for the material that it is made out of, which is a big thing for a case, right? But...

um i'm not going to say i'm happy with my purchase because i am looking forward to finding a suitable leather case that i can replace it with but i am i'll say this i am happier with this case than i was with the apple clear case which also has a bare bottom that i bought for my 14 pro right so i i've tried the clear cases they're not for me this this

If I had to live with this, I could tolerate it, but it is nowhere near as nice as my leather one. So, you know, go to the store and check it out. Marco looked at it, he thought it felt cheap. I think it feels very nice and solid and precise and good and grippier than I thought it would. It's just not that, you know, the oil situation is a problem. It's not as grippy.

Even the ridge around the camera, I've used a lot of cases, first party and third party, that have like a vertical wall around the camera mesa. And the Beats case, it's almost vertical, But not quite. It's got just enough of a slant to it that it feels less cheap to me than just like a big vertical wall stuck into the back of the case.

Like I said, it does have a circle and a line for MagSafe on the back for reasons that escape me because it's not a clear case. Why do you need to do that? It does have a Beats logo on the side. But I... I actually give a pretty good rating to the Beats case if you can tolerate the material that's made out of, which I can almost tolerate.

No, you don't want to scuff it up. Although, actually, by the way, a tiny bit of real-time follow-up. We mentioned already the camera control, which we'll get to in a second on the Beats case, I'm assuming.
